Condition

Overall in very good condition. The leather on this chair has been sensitively and professionally replaced, and presents quite handsomely with some very minor surface wear and light scratches consistent with gentle use. The wood frame with some minor scuffing indentations and scratches, the largest scratch measuring approximately 2 5/8 inches, not visible unless closely inspected. This chair is designed to swivel and moves with ease. The metal sabots with some slight oxidation, in keeping with the natural aging of the material. A beautiful example of this iconic model displaying a superb wood selection.
